| Re: [eclipsecon-na-program-committee] Git talks |
A "using git" tutorial that is fairly in depth and focusing on newer features sounds great to me. Personally it doesn't bother me if it is command line based - I still use the command line over eGit for many git tasks. The only currently submitted tutorial is about deploying gerrit, which maybe in interesting but is very specialized. Every developer needs to know how to *use* git, but very few need to know or care how gerrit is deployed. Just my $0.02.

I could ask Matthew McCullough and/or Tim Berglund their availability
for doing a tutorial or talk about purely learning Git and focusing on
newer features.
Matthew does cover some EGit, but still uses the command-line as the
foundation for teaching.
